-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: John W. Linville <[email protected]>
patch d114f399b4da6fa7f9da3bbf1fb841370c11e788 in mainline.
The previous IW_SCAN_THIS_ESSID patch left a hole allowing scan
requests on interfaces in inappropriate modes.
